Healing Guatemala is a non-profit organization that focuses on healing disease, poverty, and the soul. This is accomplished through several ministries:
Medical, Meal Serving, Education, and Pastoral.
Medical Ministry
Journey of Medicine
Healing Guatemala outreaches the people living in a remote
mountain areas with medical and dental service. Currently, we are visiting
those villages once a month, but we plan to visit more frequently.
Medical mission team
Healing Guatemala works together with medical mission teams to provide more specified medical service, including surgery.
Currently Medical Clinic Bethesda provides general medical service, but we pray and purse to grow the clinic as a cancer treatment cancer focusing on pediatric and gynecological cancer. From next year, we will begin cervical cancer screening project.
Meal Ministry
Meal serving ministry
Many children in rural area in Guatemala often do not have a
substantial meal to have. The problem of the lack of meal in childhood is not
only hunger itself, which causes temporary suffering, but also long term
sequale. For childhood is the period that one’s brain develops the most. If
sufficient nutrition is not provided in these years, the brain does not develop
fully, which will cause life-long disadvantage.
Currently Healing Guatemala has 600 children from three
villages, Chuisajcaba 1, Chuisajcaba 2, and La Toma who have one substantial
meal a week. Though right now, we serve one meal a week, we pray that we can
provide a substantial meal a day for more children.
Providing Education
A
Chuisajcaba scholarship is granted to those who graduate from either
Chuisajacaba Uno or Dos Elementary school to enter middle schools. Without the
scholarship, most likely children would end up continuing to live in
Chuisajacaba in extreme poverty, just like their parents. We believe that we
can break this cycle of poverty through our scholarships which will act as
seeds to change the life of our children.
Providing Hope
We give Taekwondo classes to our 300 children at Chuisajcaba Uno and Dos. The purpose of the class is to inspire and to motivate the children so that the children have dreams, hope, and confidence, which they did not previously even entertain because of extreme poverty. It is so good to see our children regain their dreams and confidence! In prayers, we are joyfully teaching taekwondo to our children!
Pastoral Ministry
Theological training for local pastors
Healing Guatemala helps local pastors with providing intensive theological courses. Many local pastors do not have theological training, longing to study theology more. Healing Guatemala organizes and hosts professor teams from the United States who have doctorate degree in theology so that the local pastors have sound and deeper theology, which will strengthen the Kingdom of God in Guatemala
Working with Local Church
Through brotherhood partnership, Healing Guatemala helps the ministry of local church.
